Beauty

You know because I say it all the time, that Bill Cunningham has a piece of my heart.  His photography is beyond.  His philosophy is one I’ve adopted for myself, and it’s in these words of his that it’s captured:

“If you look for beauty, you will find it.”

To be ever on the lookout for something that is awesome, or just sweet; life-changing, or just smile-inducing.  That’s the thing.  Beauty doesn’t have to rock you to your core, I think.  It’s enough to look on my dog having a fine time chasing a fly around the room and not think how annoying it is to have a fly in the room, but instead to smile at Russell’s one-eyed (no depth perception) attempts.  It’s perspective.  What’s good about a situation that otherwise seems hard?  What’s beautiful about something that might otherwise seem ugly?  If you look for what’s wrong, that’s all you’ll see.  Better to look for beauty, I think.  Onward!  Happy Little Friday Eve!
